1989 Ford Mustang LX 5.0 Convertible For Sale
41,000 Original Miles * 2 Owners * 5.0L V8 * Automatic * Original Window Sticker
Offered for sale is this exceptionally appealing 1989 Ford Mustang LX 5.0 Convertible, finished in classic Black with a Scarlet Red cloth interior. Showing approximately 41,000 original miles, this two-owner Fox Body Mustang combines its original 5.0-liter V8, automatic overdrive transmission, and desirable factory equipment with extensive maintenance documentation.

Original 5.0L V8 & Automatic Overdrive
Under the hood is Ford's legendary 5.0-liter (302 cubic-inch) electronic fuel-injected V8, paired with the factory four-speed automatic overdrive transmission.

The engine remains stock, preserving the character and driving experience that made the 5.0 Mustang so popular during the late 1980s. The car benefits from two tasteful upgrades:
Flowmaster exhaust system for a more pronounced V8 sound
Subframe connectors to help improve chassis rigidity
The owner describes the car as turnkey and ready to enjoy. Black Exterior & Scarlet Red Interior
The factory Black exterior gives this Mustang a timeless appearance, complemented by its distinctive Scarlet Red cloth interior.

As an LX 5.0 Convertible, it offers a clean, understated alternative to the GT while retaining the same desirable V8 powertrain. The original window sticker confirms an attractive selection of factory equipment, including:
Power-operated convertible top
Power windows
